Your faith was deeper than the ocean
stronger than weeping willows roots
You were sweeter then baked apple pie
sensitive as some new born babies cries
Oh why? . . . Oh why? . . . Oh why?

A silver lining on a stormy day
each time I see a cloud
I will blow a kiss your way
your love overflowed,
feelings from your heart
a waterfall of passion and warmth

Loving words written in rhyme
you described your precious time
your journey through life
each daffodil and blade of grass
each dancing leaf in the wind
as your life waltzed past

I will frame your words so dear
my heart a sad portrait of tears
may the wings of my love softly touch
and shine upon your halo
like the sunshine anointing
God's misty rainbows

Your friendship I will cherish
I will hold your memory dear
close to the music of my heart
How can I forget you Dear Bill?
when we are only a prayer apart
                



Every child is an artist. The challenge is to remain an artist once he grows up.

I do not know Bill, have no idea what happened, but this poem was so tender and loving, that I know one thing about Bill, he was greatly loved.
Thank you for this lovely tribute.

Vic, this is so wonderful. Ever so much more eloquent than mine. But I agree with the sentiments here.
